Dunno about that, but theres something wrong with his thumb......

Yes,but doesn`t Brucey have lovely hands!
Tell me,what hand cream do you use,and that shade of nail varnish?

I have my bell on a Minoura Spacegrip.
With normal bars it can be put closer to the lever hoods

can't be easy going round corners like that....

cheers

you can also get the bell to fit on the stem. Its not as readily available on the canal path but its want I use to reduce the clutter.

an example and the bells are prettier, if that matters.

Just a suitable photo I already had in photobucket.
The stem unlocks so I can get past it in the hallway, and it's also a useful tea-leaf preventative if I don't want to carry a big lock.

Yep.


However, it's made by Lion Bellworks, http://lionbellworks.co.uk/index.php They sound lovely!
You can save a quid if you order from Lion direct. Amazon want £3.99 for P+P whereas Lion only want £2.99, so I went for Lion and just ordered one!

Eh?

Looking on the Lion site, they are asking, like Amazon, £12.95. Or £3.95 for the bracket. Have you got special Cornish pricing Mick?

for P+P...?

cheers

Nice work Mick F - 2 ordered direct for £2.99 postage - blingtastic!

Amazon - £12.95 plus £3.99 = £16.94
Lion - £12.95 plus £2.99 = £15.94

Or am I missing something?

I think NOT!

Ooops, I didn't notice it was the P&P you were referring to.

if it is any consolation, I didn't either the first time I read it through.

£3.99 seems like a fair price to pay for a bell, not postage on a bell.

Having said that it is a very nice bell....

Maybe my brain needs recalibration....

cheers

Are they gold plated?
